Abstract

Measurements of the pressure and magnetic field dependence of the

A_{1}

and

A_{2}

transitions in superfluid

{}^{3}{He}

are reported. The

A_{1} - A_{2}

splitting,

T_{A_{1}} - T_{A_{2}}

, is nearly a linear function of field over the range 0-9.4 T. For a given field, the observed increase of

T_{A_{1}} - T_{c}

with increasing pressure is in accordance with a recent theory by Bedell and Quader.
